Very quickly as I'm still playing with an OS, you can get two disks working by replacing the IDE cable with a dual headed one
A regular dual IDE cable?
and putting in a power splitter. The actual onboard support supports two, just they only have one power cable and a single head IDE cable supplied.
Any wiring diagrams anywhere?
Presumably, you need to setup some brackets to mount the second HD?
The power splitter is just taking a normal single molex connector and converting it to dual output. You usually get them with new PSUs or motherboards and they're very commonplace.
Regular dual IDE cable is also needed. Not sure capabilities of the system board yet, assuming ATA66 or ATA100 at this stage.
